Episode Description
Inspirational survivor, speaker, and author Dave Sanderson risked his life to help fellow passengers to safety when US Airways Flight 1549 crash-landed into the Hudson River on January 15, 2009. Miraculously, all of the crewmembers and passengers survived. Since then, Dave has traveled the world to share what defines leadership during a crisis, and in daily life. He’ll talk about how your values drive your decisions, how both uncertainty and certainty affect leadership, and how you can grow, rather than decline through tragic or potentially tragic situations. In viewing the plane crash as a metaphor for other life-changing moments you have faced, or might face, Dave will discuss the question: 'How can I add even more value and enjoy the process?' He’ll clarify what it takes to shift from depression to purpose, from uncertainty to certainty, from strife to peace. Dave’s story demonstrates how you can make a difference in the way you do business, and the way you live.
